What I am experiencing is the grinding feel on the shifter. Only way for me to not have that is to shift slower. Is there any other tehnique that I can use to prevent this grind besides shifting slower as it is kind of defeats the purpose of driving a high performance sports car.

Now THAT is not what I have experienced, so you have a different situation. What I had was an inconsistency in the notchiness, it seemed like some times 1->2 and 2->3 were butter smooth, yet firm and other times, notchy. The only time it is consistently smooth is when hard turning left under power so that was my clue that there was some inertia-based movement either in the engine or tranny mounts. I tried the tranny mounts as they are cheap and do no harm and the shifts do seem more precise and consistent now, so it's always notchy now

I had grind 2 or 3 times. Maybe caused by letting clutch out early. I changed to Bmmerworld tranny mounts recently. The car feels much tighter when shifting. There are more vibration when cold, but I can live with that.

I am waiting for my AutoSolutions SSK. It should be here by end of April and install in May in time for Laguna Seca. I don't expect much shorter throw but more precise shifting.

I do noticed the tranny shifts during turns while shifting 1 -> 2. That is the reason I changed the tranny mounts.

Just a heads up. Installed the new tranny mounts and I have not grinded at all. Tranny has a notchier feel but it seems to have eliminated my grinding going into second. It is awesome being able to slam into second gear and get ALL the power down. Feels good. RE tranny mounts $50. Did about fifteen stop and go's from first to second up to 8k shifting w/o hesitation. Went right into gear and the tires rip off second gear. NICE. Install was a bitch as the studs are longer on the RE mounts compared to the stock ones. This makes it tricky. I used a angled Craftsman 3/8 ratchet to get to the top mount bolts. No exhaust removal, just took down part of the heatshield. 45 minutes including jacking car.

You need to remove the tranny crossmember first then loosen the top mount bolts.

Thanks for the long term review Mousitch. I might have to look into this.

Who else had this done? thekurgan, RobMCoupe how are you enjoying yours?

Actually it's not so long term. About 48 hrs. Meant to put them on sooner but was to busy with the header install and shakedown.But from the results so far and the feel I'd say it's a winner. Ill keep everyone posted as I am expecting to get some good miles on her this coming weekend.
